Cinelli XA Quill Stem and Soba Bars
From my search on Ebay and another site I don't remember which, but it wasn't here it looks like the Cinelli XA comes in a 26.4 version and 26 version. Stupidly I bought one from an add that didn't say which it is and forgot to ask before I bought it. Now I'm still waiting since yesterday for the guy to get back to me on the which size he sold me. Anyway I want to buy some Soba Bars I decided I want to try them, but they only come in 26. I've only seen shims that would make the bars bigger than 26.4, but not that would turn a 26 into a 26.4.
Is there a shim I can purchase that will make a 26 fit in a 26.4 clamp and if so where can I buy them.

Bike shops cut shims from aluminum cans. Rivendell sells shims, but there is no reason a "fancy" shim would work better than one cut from a can.
